Hi folks,

Has anyone[1] tried scripting the Location Manager[2]?

Code like:
------
tell application "Location Manager"
    set current location to location "Office"
    quit
end tell
------
works, but the LM always displays the "Switching to 'Office' was
sucessful (OK)" modal dialog which is a bit of a pain as I want it to
continue the script and do connects, etc.

Oh, it also seems to have trouble switching *from* a PPP TCP/IP config
*to* a Manual Ethernet config. - everything else works OK

rgds, Alan
[1] Ben?
[2] Err, LM 2.01,  Sys 8.0 (UK)
